Saturday, November 1, is the Feast of All Saints, the day we honor all the faithful departed from every time and place who now share in the banquet of heaven. This Feast is not observed as a holyday of obligation when it falls on a Saturday or a Monday. Mass for All Saints will be celebrated at 7:30am Saturday morning. The 5:00pm Mass on November 1 and all the Masses on Sunday will be for the Feast of All Souls, a special day to remember and pray for our loved ones who have died, asking the Good Shepherd to welcome them into Paradise.

The next preparation session for parents (and, if possible) godparents of infants to be baptized will be Monday November 10 from 7:00 to 8:15pm in the Rectory.

Baptisms normally take place on the second and fourth Sundays of the month at 1:15pm and on the first weekend of the month during Mass.
